Very nice work. The color of the buildings through the tree is perfect.Quote:

A new (to me) Zone VI 4x5 camera arrived yesterday as I prepare for another project. Have been looking through my old view camera prints and came across this one. Always interested at the intersections of the natural landscape and man. Made it with an 8x10 Zone VI camera and a 125mm Fujinon lens which obviously vignettes. https://scooterinthesticks.com/wp-co...hy_life005.jpg

Steve, for some reason I really like your vignettes - I think they remind me of the old silent movies when they would fade in and out of scenes, the did it with a circular fade. Makes me want to give this a try. I also just spent some time at your blog - I have been a rider since my first motorcycle purchase in 1978 - currently have a Honda Rebel 250 and a Suzuki SV 650 - love them both.Quote:

Will definitely be nice when the temperatures get into the single digits...

I went hiking over the weekend in Rocky Mountain National Park. I'm a pretty lucky guy as it is only a 40 minute drive up the canyon.
Here's one shot taken from the hike. Shot using a Zone VI 4x5 and Fujinon SW 125mm F5.6 lens. Shot through a #12 filter on Foma 200 and developed in Pyrocat MC for 8.5 minutes.

Result: fifteen minutes of holding an umbrella trying to keep the lens clean (and the umbrella out of the image) while a patient wife got soaked. LOL!

Nice one. The slick, wet look after a rain, with a bit of sun, is a wonderful time to photograph.
Ah, I have fond memories of that place. Very nicely captured!
Sounds like you married a keeper. They're not all like that. Lucky man!
Agreed.
They are a treasure beyond compare.

We plan to keep it that way...

Looks great, Bill! Looking forward to seeing more of your work.Quote:

Mount Hood (11,240"', view from Larch Mtn lookout, Oregon.
Mount Hood is considered the Oregon volcano most likely to erupt, though based on its history, an explosive eruption is unlikely. Still, the odds of an eruption in the next 30 years are estimated at between 3 and 7 %, so the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) characterizes it as "potentially active", but the mountain is informally considered dormant.

A few days ago I bought a few boxes of 4x5 Technical Pan from Ebay. I LOVE Tech pan in 35mm format and wanted to try my hand at using it in 4x5.
Today I shot a couple of shots to see if the Technical Pan was still good. It was just a quick shot a couple minutes down a local trail, so nothing special. But, from this exposure, I can see that I'm going to LOVE shooting the rest of the 4x5 Tech Pan I have. The same great emulsion that I've come to know in 35mm, just on a much larger scale.
Shot on a Zone VI 4x5 and Fujinon SW 124mm F5.6 lens and developed in Rodinal 150:1 for 7 minutes.

Looks pretty good - what was your EI?
At some point I may be getting a large lot of 8x10 Tech Pan from a friend, as it is just sitting in his freezer...

That's excellent, Reinhold. I like the luminescent clouds, and also the shadow of the looming weather front.Quote:

I like to think that you are hiking through the woods for 3 days with a travois, a trusty dog, a flint rifle, a pack of film, grisly beard, and a raccoon hat and you stumbled upon this majestic scene and said "god is good, I will take a photograph".
Please don't say you just parked your Land Rover and this was the site and there was a sign in the parking lot like that have in Disney "Picture Spot".
:)
This is an amazing photo!!
Thanks for the info! If things go well, I'll get it free...;)Quote:

It's a short half mile uphill stumble on a rocky trail from a seasonal road end parking lot.
A half mile of any kind of trail is a grunt with an 8x20 camera, four massive lenses, and the usual beast of a tripod.
We (with Judy, my faithful, tough, seasoned wife formed the "expedition" ) arrived that lackluster, cloudless afternoon.
Great view, but uninspiring lighting. Grrrrr.
Chatted with some folks who were awestruck with the camera.
(We always invite people to look thru the camera and explain things.)
We shot one film holder, packed everything up and started back down.
Stumbling back down the trail, I glanced back at the mountain and saw that clouds had suddenly moved in...
We urgently clawed back up to the top and shot the last film of the day.
Sometimes things work out nicely...

Bill Poole - Great tones and sharpness, I like the last one the best. I may have to try Bergger 400 since many of my shots are wooded like your last one. I can never seem to get that with HP5. Is this a straight scan of the negative or did you enhance?
Perseverance pays off in this lovely nature scene.Quote:

In my youth I climbed Mt Hood. Near the top at the crack of dawn we stopped to make a hot drink. There was an area of large, boulder-size rocks with no snow on them. Everything else was covered in snow and ice. They were hot to the touch. The area smelled of rotten eggs. It was a stark reminder what you were standing on.Quote:

I remember that EVENT very clearly, as my buddy and I were photographing in Tumwater Canyon (Natl Scenic Area near Leavenworth WA - 120 air miles from the mtn). It sounded like someone using dynamite in the walls above us; we wondered how can that be. Then a bit later we visited a friend near Leavenworth and were told what was happening. Then it was a matter of getting back home on the west side of the Cascades before the passes were closed due to falling ash. We barely made it home.Quote:
